The Boston CutitUato9 AYERS that
'the benefits of farmers clubs are so
great that one should be organized
ia every rural neighborhood. These
local clubs may not be widely hea|d-
cd or their reports published in the
papers, but they may prove even
more useful to their participants
than more protentous organizations.
4 local has the advantage that each
member knows his neighbor and
his methods Of farming. There
is little chance in these for theorists
to air their views with popular
applause, while all the neighhorEood
knows we'll that their fae theories
are ilat|y contradic'ed by the mac
tice OF the most ~slovenIy aud IN

A GREAT INVENTION.
THE PIANO MuFFLER.n

The EAANO MVrELEAs
Everyone knows what q universal
nuisance continuous piano practice Is,
In many European cities legal measures
have actually been proposed to restrict
piano practice, but IL has remained for
this young Firm to invent and apply q
remedy fer this crying evil, in the use
OF their PATENT MUELLER" This
IL simple contrivanoe, aHd consists Of
an attachment which drops q strip Of
felt betyeen the strings aud hammers.
and is operated by pulling on. a small
knob ct the right hand of The key board.
THIS enables the perfsrner to hear the
sound of the notes without in any way
disturbing any one In the house; 10 also
prevents the hammers from becoming
worn or hardened by continuous prac-
tice, and Ia thus a great saving 10 the
instrument.
KlhieF 4 Chase have some me pianos
With muller attachment nov on eXhi

assortment OF planes 20 select from,
